The Pingry Fund
January 23, 2009

You’re making a difference.

In the simplest of terms, that is what you are doing when you become a Pingry donor. The Pingry Fund is our new name for The Annual Fund, and we remain as focused as ever on providing our students with the finest education possible—both in and out of the classroom. We were honored to have received $2.21 million of your support last year, and we are equally thankful to everyone who has already contributed towards our $2.25 million goal for this year.

Our success depends on you, especially during times when we are all facing financial challenges. Like every family, the Pingry family has also been touched by these realities. As a result, you now have the option of directing your Pingry Fund contribution to financial aid for Pingry students. We are committed to helping our current families, and your contribution to The Pingry Fund will extend the reach of assistance that the school can provide. While unrestricted contributions give Pingry the greatest level of financial flexibility, this new financial aid designation option will strengthen our community by ensuring that all of our current students can return to campus.

We promise that we will keep doing what we do best: educating students in a supportive environment that values excellence, honor, and integrity. With your help, this will happen. The world needs our graduates now more than ever, so I invite you to join us in ensuring that the Pingry experience and the Pingry reputation continues to make the strides our students have earned.

Please know how grateful the entire Pingry family is for the confidence and trust you are placing in us through your support. Without our donors, the Pingry we all treasure would not be possible.
